My daughter fell asleep in the car, so I had to drive around aimlessly for 25 minutes to keep the AC going.

Later today, I saw a guy riding his bike down the street with a full-sized window AC unit balanced on his handlebars.

the lady who lives next to me just went out jogging

good luck to you, you attractive maniac

"kids of all ages digging disneyland"

aw hell yeah

just saw a guy, on a bike, dragging an a/c unit behind him on the pavement.

it was too heavy and had no wheels underneath it or anything. he wasn't even riding the bike, he was just astride it, periodically yanking on the power cord, dragging it down the street. didn't seem like a good plan

Where are all the snarky assholes that say "huhhuh so much for global warming" every time it snows? Where are you now, assholes?

taken up in the rapture iirc

Great, now I won't have to hear it this winter!

ha. if you're scraping the pavement, no matter if you're toting home aubergines or a/c units, it probably won't come to a good end. imo

anyway, clemenza otfm. i feel better already.

american guiro. holy fucking shit. rapping on the cb radio in the van!

Those anti global warming dudes are all recalling a mere two Chicago summers ago, when there were no days that even hit 90, and several in the 70s.

that war song is punishing me, fucking treat of the 2010's

no way there is that much love in the world.

Am in Hershey, Pennsylvania on work trip. Currently 100 degrees F with 30% humidity. The a/c at the motel is too weak to compensate.

you can go swim in the chocolate river, though.

Here in Seattle it has been over 80 degrees for 78 minutes this summer.

That was a great summer.

I need to move to Seattle. Or possible the Yukon.

the news just told me that mutant mosquitos are on the way. if you need me, i'll be living in a meat locker.

(xp) or London?

(possibly not an xp)

I don't want to go out there!!!! :(

Scared.

"White Cloud"

wtf britain

It really is amazing how much of a difference the humidity makes. Being in Durango with 95 degrees and 10% humidity felt a lot easier to deal with than 95 degrees and 50% or 60% humidity.

I was at Chocolate World today, in fact! They're air-conditioning systems are robust enough to keep the immense selection of their products in the gift shop/mall from becoming bags of milk brown slurry.

Also, spotted: a tubby little white girl who pointed and screeched in happiness like a mood-inverted character from the 70s Body Snatchers flick when she glimpsed sight of the official Hershey Reeses NASCAR auto parked over in the corner.

i really feel like a slug having spent the whole day inside, sitting on my ass, and feel like i should go for at least a walk or something, but there are limits even to my guilt.

Jesus. Even my most exercise-obsessed friend got on facebook at like 6:30 this morning stating that she was going to take a run but then, no.

i was really shocked! i'd gone out to the store to get some things and was unloading the car and she walked by and we said our various hellos and then i realized she was in jogging gear and yeah there she goes running down the sidewalk. i felt like shouting PLEASE DONT DIE, YOU SEEM NICE.

i'm being slow cooked in my own sweat

you guys can come use my pool. I have enough gin.

alfred's pool is actually filled with gin

with giant ice cubes as floats and swizzle sticks as water noodles

lol alfred this is kind of how i imagine your life fwiw

Capital-J Jeff jogs when it's this hot outside, much to my consternation.

I just completed a standard allotment of mid-week household chores (trash, dishes, sweeping the kitchen, changing the cat litter, etc.) and I have to take a shower now.

I've been leaving the a/c on for the cat during the day, which I feel awful about, but I'd feel more awful if I didn't do it. (I set it at 85 fyi)

lol alfred this is kind of how i imagine your life fwiw

This is how I imagine it too.

AJ, I thought about doing that this morning but right now, I've got the AC on and both idiot cats are lying between the curtains and the back glass doors in the hottest room in the house, so I kind of feel like it would be wasted on them.

Yeah, you're right, but I get super paranoid and I figure it's only for a few days.

that was apparently two x-posts from the chicago thread.
